The Government of Canada has committed to review and restore confidence in Canada's environmental and regulatory processes and is undertaking a comprehensive review of these processes.

Consultation will be at the core of this review. Your input will be used to inform the review and will be made available to panels and committees established to undertake each component of the review. An online questionnaire was available from June 20 to August 31, 2016 for all Canadians to participate in. A summary of comments received will be posted after the results of the questionnaire have been analysed. Check back here to see updates on what we have heard.
